I love dogs, and dogs love me!
Pet care experience
I’ve cared for my neighbor’s and professor’s dogs since 2012, and got one of my own in 2015. I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs: wire-haired, curly-haired, 5 lbs, 90 lbs, puppies, and geriatric dogs. My experience includes bathroom check-ins while owners are at work all the way to overnight, week-long stays.
Reviews
Emelyn stayed with our two pups for a full week while we were out of town and was absolutely wonderful! She sent pictures and updates every few days, which gave me peace of mind that the dogs/house were taken care of while we were gone. I will, without a doubt, ask her to stay again in the future and would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter!
Emelyn was the perfect sitter for our two pups! She gave us updates throughout the day which was great and always kept us updated and stayed in contact! I would highly recommend her to anyone and we will definitely be using her again!!
Emelyn was great with Scooby. She sent updates and pictures. She took Scooby on walks and also took grewt care of our home!
Emelyn was super great with our two pups! She was easy to get in touch with and the dogs loved her. She left things clean and organized and we will definitely be using her again in the future!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I tailor walks to the size and age of the dog, and if possible, I like to let the dog make some of the direction choices because it helps their brains. I love playing with dogs from fetch to puzzles. When it’s raining or snowing, I always put down towels by the doors to protect floors from muddy paws and shoes. I’ve always been good about replacing gates as needed to keep my client’s home safe and clean. My mom taught me to always leave a place cleaner than I found it, so I usually take care of dishwasher and laundry loads before I leave.
Information Emelyn S. would like to know about your pet
In the past, my clients have left me with a page of instructions with feeding schedules and amounts, emergency contacts, and vet information. During a meet up, I’d like to get a sense of how social your dog likes to be; I can accommodate all levels, but I like to know so I can keep your dog safe and happy.
A typical day
This area has some wonderful parks, and if your dog will do well there, I’d love to take them on walks, runs, or to play fetch. I frequently play with dogs in their backyards, and I make sure to give the dog time to run around outside during all potty breaks.

Availability
I work in a school, so I’m working during the day from 7:30am to 3:30pm, but my afternoons and evenings are open. I run on some afternoons, so if you’re looking for your dog to get more activity, I can take them with me.
